Been thinking about a new tablet computer? Waiting for Apple's new iPad Mini announcement to take a look? Don't even bother. Less features and functions than the "real" iPad. No innovation whatsoever. And the $250 expected price? Nope. It starts at $329 or $459 if you want cellular connectivity.
I would seriously consider either Amazon's Kindle Fire HD or Google's Nexus 7 if you want a smaller tablet.
As a current iPad owner, I think today's announcement was a real dud.

Totally Agree! The problem (obviously) is that if they make the price too compelling ($249 for example), then they steal lots of sales from their iPad 4 product. This was a form factor that Jobs never wanted to build.
I am betting that there will be deals for a Nexus at <$150 for the holidays.
I guess if you make one and price it so that few people will buy it, then you accomplish protecting the more expensive one.
